1 Tbsp. water
1 sheet frozen puff pastry (1/2 of 17-1/4-oz. pkg.), thawed

Preheat oven to 400°F.
Beat egg and water until blended; set aside.
Unfold pastry on lightly floured surface.
Roll into 14×10-inch rectangle; cut in half lengthwise.
Brush both pastry halves lightly with some of the egg mixture.
Sprinkle 3 Tbsp. of the cheese and the pepper evenly over one of the pastry pieces; cover with ham slices.
Place remaining pastry piece, egg-side down, over ham.
